Danny Cleary News

Cleary's status for tonight's game hinged on Teemu Pulkkinen's status, but Pulkkinen will play and Joakim Andersson will sit with the flu. Cleary has averaged just 9:08 TOI and posting one goal and one assist in 12 games.

Cleary, 35, had just eight points (4G / 4A) with a minus-11 rating in 52 games with the Red Wings last season. Cleary has scored 20-plus goals on three occasions, but has registered just 23 points in 100 games over the last two seasons. He holds no fantasy value at this point, but provides the Red Wings with depth and experience.
